In a mixing bowl, add in the glutinous rice flour and pour in the water. Stir until well-blended. The consistency should be neither too dry nor too wet.
Scoop a portion of the dough (about 1 tsp) and shape into balls. Repeat for the rest of the mixture and poke the carioca balls using bamboo skewers.
In a cooking pan or frying pan, pour in and heat oil over medium heat.
Add in the ball gently into the pan. Stir occasionally until the balls float on top. Cook until golden and crispy.
Coat the carioca balls with the sugar syrup (see instructions below) and transfer to a wire rack to let cool.
Transfer to a serving plate or arrange 3 to 4 pieces in bamboo skewers (barbecue sticks). Serve and enjoy!
Coating Instructions
